FieldDescription
ASI output stuffingSelect this checkbox to achieve CBR (constant bitrate) by padding the ASI stream with TS null packets.
ASI output PLLSelect this checkbox to enable a phase-locked loop. A phase-locked loop or phase lock loop (PLL) is a control system that generates an output signal whose phase is related to the phase of an input signal. When selecting this option, the system will adjust the bitrate that is sent according to the fullness rate of the output buffer.
ASI fix timeSelect this checkbox to adjust input timestamps to local machine time.
Initial buffer time [ms]To avoid underflows, specify the output buffer size that will be filled before starting the transmission.
Read buffer size [B]Specify the input read buffer to fill, before passing data to the application. Larger buffer size should be specified for higher bitrates; Smaller buffer size will be more responsive and smoother in lower bitrate streams.

Reversing the directions of the ports

To Reverse the Direction of the StreamPorts:

  1. From the Settings page of the ZiXi Zixi Broadcaster, click ASI on the left-hand side.
    The various ASI settings are displayed.
  2. Click the desired RESET button to the right of the stream port that you want to reverse.
    A confirmation window is displayed with the notification that the service must first be restarted before the direction is reversed.
